I've become addicted to Tapper on XBLA.  The game is seriously fun - probably my favorite classic game, alongside Ms Pac Man.  The online play has really made Tapper shine, though. 

I'd probably be tired and done with the single player arcade game if it wasn't for online leaderboards and online play.  I saw Duskit post a score of 58,000 and I had to beat it.  It took me a long time, but I got to 62,000.  Now I'm just waiting to see if he'll pass me up again.

The online play has proven to be a blast too.  I'm surprisingly good at it....or else other people are bad at it, because my win-loss record is at 26-4 so far.  I've played so much that I know all the strategies and have learned the pattern for when the people appear on the bar.  But every once in a while, it'll surprise you or you'll make a little goof - and that makes it exciting.

The only problem with the game is that as soon as you get to level 7, the game gets pretty much impossible.  I can't for the life of me pass level 7. 

There's a co-op mode too, in which you team up and try to score as high as you can.  I need to get the 80,000 points in co-op achievement, so if anyone sees me online, hit me up for some Tapper co-op!!!
